This where you'll hear about my musical "finds" both old and new. This blog will also include reviews on any live music events that I attend. For the most part I won't be doing any negative reviewing though because I'd rather spend my time telling you about the good stuff I've found instead of wasting time discussing the stuff not worth discussing.

The content of this one is considerably different from his first solo album but Mr. Roden seems to be able to handle about anything vocally you can throw at him.

You made a 50+ year young man EXTREMELY happy with your grand gsture to share Jess'es divine music with me. I have the vinyl, but no player since back in the 80ies... It is the uttermost masterpiece that i was looking fore since some 5 years now. Much obliged.

As a 50+ year young american citizen I'm extremely happy that you're extremely happy. Seriously, notes like yours make my day a bit brighter. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know that my efforts are not entirely wasted.
